ah ok
Just buy the Steam version of the game, and log in using your account.
thanks
@tidal yarrow There’s usually at least one aetheryte in every zone you can teleport to once you attune.
Sooo, I made it to level 48 on trial account, story quest is caught up. Should i look at doing another class or wait?
wait so if i buy this does it apply to my account automatically? or is there like a code thing i need to do
just wanted to confirm, you can play all classes using just one char?
my WOW brain still cant believe this
Yes.
You'll get a code emailed to you that you have to enter on the Mogstation
Yep, no need for alts in this game.
and then i'll have the full game?
Yes.
if you buy the complete edition for pc can you use it in steam
There are reasons for alts if you’re a hardcore crafter or really in to Rp.
That’s about it.
so after i have to make my free trial char into a full game one right
what do i need to buy if it's unavailable in my country
A VPN
It should upgrade.
ah okay thanks
Close the game, apply code on mog station, get the litte confirmation it’s redeemed, and that should be it.
thank you kind people, starting my FF journey now 🙂
alright thank you ^^
How do I have hotbar 7 to be behind hotbar 4?
Hotbar 7 is the skills next to my character so I could see the cooldown more and 4 is a menu I open up using a keybind pretty much.
It used to be otherway around but 4 was on top so I switched thinking that will fix it. But now 4 is on top of 7 so I don't know
Should be in the hot bar interface.
Also this is a final fantasy game, a character changing between multiple jobs is pretty normal. XD
the fields of glory is pvp?
what world should i choose
does race matter much ? can I just go by the looks?
There are some minor stat differences but nothing that gear can’t make up.
i don't want to rp i just want to play the game but from what I heard faerie is good for new players
A 10 hp difference doesn’t matter when your hp is over 100k
The stats literally do nothing
What you mean? There's an option to choice which hotbar can be on top or not? I didn't saw it, where is it?
my country isnt in the country thing uuhhhhh
which country are you in?
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
At level 80 there are some differences in hp. But it’s not much.
It doesn't matter
thailand
thanks
pick one of the japanese servers
then switch over to oceanian server once that becomes available in a few months
Literally nothing and not worth mentioning
ah i already have an account in a jp datacenter
im trying to buy the complete edition for pc rn
How do I start donating in doman enclave?
but im at the checkout and my country isn't in the options lol
basically gonna have to go with a different country/address
can i have the free trial download link?
there are several SEA countries that aren't listed for w/e reason, so have to just make due and use a fake address to buy the game
!faq freetrial
just make sure you keep that info some place in case something goes wrong and you need it later
Hello everyone, i got a question regarding market taxes, so i transfered my retainer to crystarium since it has reduced taxes by 5%, yet when i am listing new items over this retainer i still get an info text that i will be charged 5% taxes when the item will be sold, although under this msg it clearly states that taxes are reduced on this market. Any ideas?
So transfering retainers to avoid taxes makes no sense?
ah okay
There’s an npc you can sell the items to at a desk.
it does if you really care about how much gil you'll get when an item is sold
are you certain crystarium is reduced rates
I believe she is also the unlock npc.
What are the point of the leve quests?
wondering how being banned for mods works? is it like a detection thing or if u flex it, talk about it in chat n stuffs
largely used for leveling crafting/gathering classes @supple pebble
I was told to always do the blue quests, but it seems the leve quests are somewhat... Usless?
Nowadays? They’re the easiest way to level gathering and crafting.
Ah, gotchal. Thank you! :)
Which worlds currently give double exp and is it possible to switch to one without remaking a character? My coworker started a character and doesn't know if it is a double exp world lol.
Combat leves are mostly pointless.
None
For eu or na
basically so long as you don't talk about in-game its pretty unlikely to be banned for using mods
Yes 100% sure, 5% tax reduction, yet i am charged exactly the same amount upon selling
@twilit archoh wow thanks coz im tihnking of using skill effect mods, should be fine ay
i dont wanna get banned after paying for it and subs LOL
Bit more context. Crafting leves give double exp if you turn in high quality items. You find out which one gives the most and if you have a friend to power level you by crafting high quality items you can level absurdly fast.
Hardcore raiders use dps meters and there is a website solely tasked with recording and ranking people. SE obviously knows about it but looks the other way.
one can't change their race though? right?
Not for free.
wow thats awesome
You get 1 fantasia free
You get one freebie
I started playing this game 3 days ago roughly, so just trying to learn more about it so I'll spam a few more noob questions that google can answer but I'm a bit of a social person-
I've noticed Trials don't give out EXP//Gear (At least I think) in normals/Storyline induced trials. Am i missing something there, or do they seem a bit pointless? I know my friend is preaching the extreme dungeons/trials, but for someone level 47 etc, is there a point for me to spam those Trials, or better off doing dungeons?
But I think you get a free race change if you reach a certain level.
ah thats cool
Story trials are just for story
The extremes give the gear
And mounts
Level 47 is a bit of a rough patch. My friends and I call it “the dead zone.” It’s a lot easier now with palace of the dead to hit 50.
If you want to level from 47 make sure you do your leveling roulette and then palace.
Whereas I agree, im almost hitting 50, this is fine, because im strolling through blue quests now
And gives me some time to do my company missions
Nothing that will make me level, I know, but it will help me progress with the game, and I'll need it for when im higher level anyways xD
Guys I have a problem, I can't switch the inventory to normal to one big inventory, I only have the expanded version available, there is only 2 options 😢
You dont have open all?
i done the haircut quest but i dont know where and how to change my hairstyle
Any inn at the bell in your room
@frosty ridge No I don't xD
okay
I don't know why and it piss me off xD
Thats...super odd im not sure what would trigger that not being there
Screenshot
right yeah
go to any inn room (bed icon on the map) and interact with the crystal bell
In the Inn rooms there’s a little bell thing with a barbershop stripe.
Do that and you’ll summon the npc. It costs 2k gil to change hair.
I'm not making this shit up xD
Isn’t that the option that shows everything
no that goes from one pane to two
can i server transfer form lich to phoenix? what are teh drawbacks?
there is a third option, at least it's supposed to exist when I watch youtubers giving advices :/
Are you accidentally clicking on retainer inventory
no xD
are you on dx9?
believe so
oh
there is a creature call barbastelle
that's so weird, that's not an option that should take any power or anything xD
What color is the icon
some blue triangle
there are indeed three options
ehh, it didn't drop anything tho
thanks I'll see if that changes when I switch to a better pc @narrow jay
seems like nothing special
That’s a hunt target
so it may in fact be a DirectX version issue
It’s a weekly kill quest.
There are B rank enemies in every zone and players can get a weekly quest to kill 1 of them in the various expansions.
How long in seconds is the debuff for dying?
2 minutes?
2mins
or 120 seconds, since that was the requested unit lol
Do I just buy like the best?
Yes
is there any quest requirement for being able to buy the Regalia Type-G car mount that's coming next month other than unlocking gold saucer? like clearing Praetorium?
Complete the 15 quest line during the event
what level is that?
50
does it also require finishing lv50 msq?
Is there a way to auto-target the next hostile enemy once you kill the first? (or is that a bad idea lol)
No
Can't remember but probably
Hi everyone ^^
I've been trying to purchase game through Mogstation but it keep giving me "Erreur d'Accès - Forbidden". anyone know how to fix it plz ?
You don't buy off mogstation
You sub on mogstation
You do it on SE store or trusted third party sellers
The best suggestion I can make is get used to automatically hitting either Tab or whatever your "Target Nearest Enemy" keybind is.
Will quests still appear for me above NPC's head's if I'm way overlevelled for that specific quest? Like if I'm level 50 and I go to an area of Level 4 quests, will the quests still appear to me like normal?
... I didn't know that was a keybind. I was struggling to click on the next enemy while not accidentally clicking on a party member
Noct of heroes does need Prae to be completed
Alternatively, you can use the scroll mouse wheel in combination with the Shift/Ctrl/Alt keys to set up a keybind to cycle through enemies as well
do i need to put my actual address in the checkout area cuz it doesn't have an option for my country
I actually just learned this recently, and it's making my healing job a heck of a lot easier lol
so idk what im supposed to put
Yes
thanks
How can I stop the cross bar from sharing abilities between jobs
stop using it?
why can't i start my leves quest ?
Turn off sharing
there is no initiate button
On the cross hotbar
Scroll down to the leve itself
I can't seem to make an account, keep getting error i2501
can someone help me make an account on my behalf?
open journal, and there should be a button "Initiate" at the bottom right
In your journal, it should be on the bottom of the quest description pane
I want to start a gathering job to make gil. I'm between goldsmith and alchemist. What job between those 2 would you recommend to make gil?
All of then
is level 5 petrify only obtainable in manor?
cool
How do i get the Fat chocobo mount?
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1muCCkDxJGgV4ZhP46cDZOq5H55wzZ4KE4FaVf0cBWtE/edit#gid=0 you can refer to this
Intro & Info
BLU - Intro & Info
Hello! I'm Ruanark Maousame of Hyperion (Primal DC), writer of this guide and I compiled a lot of BLU-related info into a single location. I did two guides on Reddit, but with another level cap increase coming and even more in the future, I decided it's easier to ...
I've learned that the best way to increase my rank with my company is by paying Company Seals.
Whats the best way to Farm them? I've noticed so far that FATEs give you them, and not a bad amount, am I missing anything else?
Your Company Hunting log will have seals as rewards
I'm having trouble using Glamour.
I have made a Glamour Plate using the Glamour Dresser, but when I press "apply" nothing happens to my character
this suck
Thank you. I'll keep an eye on those, need to finish them. Only on rank 2
How can I gather clear prisms? (not buying it)
A Realm Reborn Collector's Edition
Anyone knows where is the quest guy for anima relic weapons?
Couple of quick checks:
- Are you in an area that allows you to use glamour plates? Not every social hub is technically a town instance, so make sure you're in a major city.
- Is the gear you used for the plate actually equipable by your class? In order to use a piece of gear for glamour, you still have to be able to equip that gear.
Are there any red Xs on your glamour plate
I'm in New Gridania, inside an Inn. That should do it, right?
Yes - The gear I wore I took off to put into the Glamour box
yes
then you can't use it for one reason or another
What
Can i still buy that even tho i have the game with all expansions already?
I just wore it on my character
Either wrong class or you don't have something in that slot for it to glamour over
Its says there is the ARR collectors edition
no, you need to buy the upgrade via Mogstation
Collectors is an upgrade
huh
You can't apply a glamour when you're wearing nothing
Does my whole roster get the Squadron EXP reward from missions, or only the 4 units that are deployed?
I get that but.. I'm wearing gear
only those four
Your equipped gear is too low level
Lower level or higher level gear
What does that mean?
To be glamoured with that gear
Thanks for your answer!
You can't glamour high level stuff on low level gear
oooh
Your gear is too low level for the glamour
High levels can’t be glammed on low levels
Because it could trick people into thinking you have good gear
Level up for max glamour options. The true endgame.
Alright thanks for the answers! I'll go farm some gear 😅
also, since this question got a bit lost in the glamour shuffle: https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Anima_Weapons/Quest#Soul_Without_Life
I haven’t even finished post-5.0 MSQ, and I’m spending most of my time on Hw Relics
Ok so, I mostly leveled on Dungeons and PoTD, where can I get some gear so I don't suck at Job quests?
Vendors are always an option.
Complete for Paladin and the Lux DRK one - Jesus Christ are they nice
Yes.
ARR is the only time vendor gear is considered viable
But vendors suck past ARR
Because the NQ HQ difference is like, 1-2 points
People will tell you "never buy gear from vendors", but if it keeps you at-level, it's good enough for now.
So how does the One Man's Relic quest work? Do you just need to clear Delibrum Reginae?
Yeah it’s a weekly.
Buying resistance gear.
The vendor in Gangos only takes gold ones
Where can I find level 47 BLM gear?
Like vendor in which region?
the vendor inside Bozja takes silver ones
Your level 45 job quest gear should be good enough
As it's Item Level 50 gear
@narrow jay Zadnor or Bozja Southern Front?
No the gangos vendor takes silver
And upgrades them for gold
Scroll dowb
It's at the bottom
That's the point, I have VERY low ilvl so doing job quests is hard for me
Check a major city.
If you've been taken gear from story then it's fine
See if they got anything.
I only leveled through PoTD and Fates
This isn't my first job
Should’ve been doing dungeons
So MSQ is out of the way
Free gear
Any of the markets in the major cities will have gear vendors. Hawker's Alley for Limsa, the Sapphire somethingorother for Ul'Dah, and in Gridania, take the aetheryte network to the Leatherworker's Guild and run east.
Dungeon queues for lvl 30 DPS is sooo long
Got it, I'll look for these
what is a blue mage and what does it do?
Yeah. Get the alt job to 50 in potd and then just farm gear for it on your main.
Tried and true method.
Breaks the game in half
A limited job that can't do story or que for dungeons normally but it's insanely broken and does wacky shit.
Think of it like a side quest where your goal is fill your spell book and complete arena challenges.
Each time you clear a raid do you get the tomestone number listed or is that once a week?
Ok good to know, thank you.
Unless you're capped on weekly revelation
or you're capped on capacity
is there any point in doing duty roulette more then once a day?
No
ah
Hi guys I have a question about the expansions
i see
what gold saucer game should i play, that i can click a few times while a t work
Roulettes give nothing past the daily time
is there any way i can change from steam to pc
Cuff a cur is pretty basic.
other than buying the game on Steam again, no
In my opinion, it’s the simplest with the most margin for error.
So I already own the first 3 expansions. I purchased shadow bringers and endwalker last night then waited for the update to download. I’m now just able to log in and I get this option. It’s only letting me choose one.
No.
Not unless you buy it for pc. >_>
so i buy the pc complete edition and put the code on my account i can do that?
I think you can do both but only one at a time.
You can only swap if you're on non steam trial
If you touched steam at all you can't use pc
Okay I will try shadowbringers first
You have to get deeper.
how much?
That I don’t remember.
floor 100, iirc
that's likely because they are independent keys
Floor 100
I checked on square enix but can't find my country. & it wont lemme pay if I pick a random country . . . any solution ?
Hello guys, i got a little question. I'm going hit 80 soon and was wondering about the level 80 weapon. [Relic weapon whatever its called for level 80] does that have msq requirements? or can i work on that as soon as i get to 80?
Yes
5.0 to start. 5.1 to get to bojza for the second set of steps, 5.4 for the final steps
what country are you in?

Thank you @narrow jay @nocturne wyvern all sorted now.
Is relic weapon currently the best lv 80 in this cycle? Not Exarchic or other crafted? Or relic is for glam?
Yes
if you're from a non-eu country and living in the eu you may need to just convert to euros and pay that way
Morocco
Oh interesting, thank you for the info 🙂
Exarchic will get you going, if you can get hold of the Diamond EX weapon that'll be even better, but yeah Relic is the best currently
Thank you, so i need to get to 5.4
Relic has equal item level and primaries to the savage raid weapon but even better secondaries which makes it superior.
Is there relic armor too that is relevant? Or I'm guessing that is older and Exarchic is used for gear?
Augmented Cryptlurker's or current-tier Savage gear
so how does one use the limit break thingy ma bob
Varies
Best in slot armor is always a combination of savage and augmented tomestone.
Ah so best armor and weapons is still not crafted then. That's interesting. Is it usually the case? Or changes by expansion? I guess it's good to have grind goals.
Crafted is never the best (save for rare exceptions for tank stuff)
Crafted is your starter set to get in to raiding.
Crafted is stepping stones
I guess crafted sell because people need the armor to grind for the other stuff. Makes sense. Thanks.
Guys coming from WoW I was kinda always feeling like a broke hoe. Can you enjoy FFX minus the sub without having to spend money on cosmetics? Can you achievement hunt / quest for transmogs/mounts etc?
Are there any communities for discussing FF14 triple triad?
in your hotbar
Yes.
found it thank ya
can I still buy the game even if I don't live in eu ?
any advantages to downloading and using installer or is it better to go with steam?
Yes
can u plz tell me how ?
I went with pc because someone told me that I’d have to do the steam launcher to launch the ffxiv launcher.
And that annoys me when I have to do that.
how do people get Suzaku's sword but with even more glow?
Crafted.
only from craft?
All glowing primal weapons are crafted
You get a crafting material from suzaku ex and then make the sword yes.
so the one in the market board is different?
thanks
Boss drops a specific item, and then crafters can use that item to make the glowy spiffy weapon
i see
where do i see quardinates
Coordinates are under the mini map
Question
how can I get access to Fanow? ||(the Viis town) ||
North part of rak tia? Do story
ok
EVERYTHING is locked behind main story progress
im doing arbor buzzard for my hunting log and i literally cant find the fuckers
so how can I exactly get to fly in uhh raktika?
Same way as any other zone
!faq flight
'How can I unlock Flying?'
Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.
Flying is further unlocked in the expansions through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.
'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'
Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/
Get the currents
Same as every other zone
alright thanks then
do we have a channel for people looking to do UCOB ultimates as well as other ultimates?
So... if I buy shadowbringers on sale right now does that give me all the game + past expansions or do I have to buy them all seperately? Their store page is kinda confusing.
!faq buy
You'll still need to buy the base game if you're on trial
Im still on my trial from 2015, if I buy the complete edition would my progress be saved etc?
It's carried over
So I need to buy base edition + shadowbringers. Ok.
how do i enter the goblet? a quest need me to go there
how can i get the regalia mount?
So I've heard potions are not that good in the game. Rather that be for HP, MP, or stat boost.
Does that mean cooking profession are useless too, or are there other uses for that profession?
ohh i see thanks!
i just finished anemos and pagos seems really hard to solo does anyone have a side relic that wants to get or anyone wanna start pagos with me?
Culinary makes stat food which is mandatory for high end raids
Alchemist makes stat boost pots for high end raiders for high end raids
Alchemist and Culinary. Do those 2 give different kind of stat boost?
And by high end raid do you like like at level 80? Or is it useful for level 60 raids too?
It says I currently havea license for ARR and Heavensward, also it says my subscription ended in 2015. In game it says I have 11 days left on my trial. Square enix is pretty confusing, but if I buy the complete edition now, I would get stormblood and shadowbringers, and nothing else will change correct?
Also a lot of stuff exists in the game that is not high end / end game content. I made plenty of gil and had fun crafting stuff for friends mid level with GSM xD
You probably got 2 weeks sub from the login campaign
You're not on trial
I see. Thank you :D
Alright
There's no profession in this game that's useless than?
Complete edition won't be redeemable on your account
All crafters are needed
That's AWESOME :D
With the exception of cul 90% of the time all crafters tie into each other
I see, lol XD
Armor uses leather from ltw, gems from GSM, glue from alc, thread from wvr etc. Etc.
So cooking used to be useless than? Since it's useful for level 80 raid, and it's not like max level was always level 80.
Or did the stat decrease made it useless til level 80 raid, so it was still pretty useful back than? Lol XD
Cooking is always useful for endgame raiding
Even at level 60? :D
If youre capped at 60 it's about as useful as every other level 60 crafter
AWESOME
Is there a way to get old quest items for glamour
the Calamity Salvager will also have some of your old things
depending on what it is
I think it's from the 2.4 questline
does anyone recognize this chest piece ?
Is there a way i can switch from a gladiator to a magic character?
Yeah, you equip a wand
You can play all jobs on one character
After unlocking the job
Just finish your starting class' level 10 quest and you can freely go to the thaumaturge guild and unlock that class
Etc.
it says lvl 11 "Last letter to lost Hope"
Do i have to pay for samurai class or is there another way
You need to own stormblood
!faq msqtracker
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
The second one
Where do I spend allegory and revelation stuff?
Also what should I get with each
You'll get a quest every few levels to progress the gladiator story.
?
Eulmore, up the stairs from the aetheryte
Buy gear if needed for allegory, else buy and sell mats
Or upgrade exarchic at hillican
What's the deal with people in dungeons not saying anything after you greet them or ask a question, but then proceeding to ask if you're afk, when you're waiting for their response? And it happens VERY often, like every 2nd or 3rd dungeon. I honestly never met such behavior in any other online game. I'm playing like 2 months, so maybe I don't know something? Is it a bad tone to type in the chat at all?
Some people just want to get in and out the dungeon as fast as possible
Well, yes, but how long it takes to type "hi" in the chat?
Nothing is forcing people to
That's not really an answer, but alright
If they are the leveling type dungeons in duty finder, that tends to be one of the least social parts of the game in my experience. Most people have probably done them so many times that they don't care who they are playing with as long as they don't die a bunch. It's also the part of the game where non-social players are forced to play with other people 🤷♂️
I see, that explains something
you're never obliged to talk, really
Chances are you'll never see the person again so
also you can run ahead anyway rather than waiting for another hello
Is it me or is the gnb link under #resources not working
I'm not in the rush at all, I always have few hours in my pocket, when I launch the game 😄
yeah but there's no point to waiting at all
I'm not in a rush either but I go ahead anyway
(plus auto run helps if you want to type quickly on the go)
I think there is no point to not say "hi" either, so different strokes for different folks, I guess
lol alright then
Idk what server your on but in siren it’s usually social from my experience. I try to make the process for those new and leveling engaging though.
is there a main channel for finding treasure map groups here or do people use another discord channel?
sometimes you just get chatty people
Yes, exactly. Game is very popular nowadays, and I see lots of sprouts in the dungeons. Yet for some reason 80% of them are dead silent, when I'm trying to make it relaxed and friendly
sprouts are uh
sprouts are sprouts. I think most of them are nervous and don't know anything, but it's rare you get a chatty one, but those are generally nice and receptive
@high otter I still wouldn't say you can't take one subset piece of content and then just extract that and generalize it to the rest of all the game has to offer. The game is extremely social imo
hi, i've just reached shadowbringers. i unfortunately didn't play as DRG during HW, but i played SAM during SB. just feels right to play the appropriate jobs during each expansion. For ShB, most appropriate is DRK i guess?
Well, I'm talking specifically about leveling roulette, because that's what I'm doing last 2 weeks
Guys, can I buy mounts from the market board, or are they only unlockable in game or with the cash shop outside the game ?
it's the game's culture ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Some are available on the market, the rest are not
in which category please ?
some mounts can be bought off the mb, most are acquired through in game content, and there are some on the store
@high otter Right I hear ya, like @pulsar escarp & @finite topaz said it's a bundle of people doing leveling roulettes. 1. People leveling alt-jobs or 2. New sprouts just actually playing the game. Some like to talk, others just want to focus on getting through the dungeon and into the next queue. If you're seeking out some social interaction i'd encourage you to maybe take a 30 min break before jumping into your next dungeon and hang around any of the main cities and chat with players, who knows you might be able to form a group and run some roulettes with some friends you found in the social spaces
Roughly yeah, since Derplander ends up as a DRK at the end of the trailer. He does switch through all previously obtained jobs though
Iirc it’s misc category but unless you have Gil there’s no point
ok thanks, it's just to see which cool mounts there is :3
if I use someone else's recruitment code I do not get the gold feather reward right?
you can use this site, if you want - do note some mounts aren't acquirable anymore https://ffxivcollect.com/mounts
There’s few sellable mounts. Most are unlockables or rng in dungeons. Some are rewarded for grinding etc. there should be something in resources for it
don't find any mounts in the miscellany category 😦
lol derplander. but yeah i saw the trailer and even title screen is him holding DRK sword. alright thanks
Bumping earlier question if anyone could point me in right direction - is there a main channel for finding treasure map groups here or do people use another discord channel?
Thanks guys, but apparently most of them can't be bought (can't find even one on the market board lol) so I don't want to get spoiled as to how to get them then 😄
Like I said there’s few sellable and not many people go out of their way to sell them. Mounts are a one and done thing for most people
Because you must activate special items to obtain the mounts. For mechanical mounts it's "keys", for living ones it's "horns" or "whistles"
Will I still be able to use Wyrm set as glamour, or any set, if I sell it to my grand company? Or do I have to have the item on my inventory for glamour to work?
So I just came to Kugane, and I was wondering whether I can buy the traditional samurai kinda clothes over here?
what can i get from rowena tokens?
It's a fairly niche activity; you might be able to find a linkshell for your server. But a lot of map parties just happen through Party Finder
You need to keep it on you, or store in the glamour dresser
@proud willow kk ty!
If you’re interested there are mount lists on some resources that will just list the mount a picture and the associated quest or whatever without spoiling content
Aight, thanks!
@wintry trellis Even knowing what kind of mounts I can unlock later is spoil for me, even though with watching Asmongold I've been spoiled quite a lot sadly xD
if the item's just called "Rowena's Token", those are used to buy item level 90 glamour weapons

Are we gon be able to pre order EW until right before early access? Or is there limited time for it
Easiest way is as you progress for your missions look at loot tables associated with it. You can do it during or after to limit spoiling of said adventures
Until the launch date
Flying car !
How long do you need to wait for store.eu.square-enix to process your payment? I have bought CE about 4-5 hours ago and still no email with my code and purchase history is empty
Quick answer yes.
are guildhests, levquests etc worth doing at low lvl if I just want to get through RR story?
I’ve had scenarios where it’s been instant, others where it’s been a few hours. Seems to be dependent on when it goes through their system
where should i farm exp on my second class from lv 10?
im about to complete a beast tribe quest and there appears a warning saying i can't receive all the reputation? what am i supposed to do
No, not for combay
Completed ARR last month. Easier to just burn through msq for leveling
Not really
great....
Do you know where your hunt log is ?
I just beat shadowbringers and was wondering what the best dungeons/trials to run are to help gear up for raids?
thanks!
yes
Eden and nier
That will be most effective on leveling til 15 once you can start spamming level dungeons or you can do side quests
If the quest to advance to the next reputation rank is available, do that first. If it's not, then just turn it in normally and then you'll see the rank up quest
ohh alright i do have a new blue quest from the tribe leader yes must be that
Oki then what about deep dungeon?
I don’t rlly recommend deep dungeons for early leveling. 30-50 is okay but not optimal in some cases
ic thanks
You could alternate if you get bored though
The nier final alliance raid offers ilvl 520 gear iirc. That’s your best bet. You can unlock it from the gnome tribe where you did the last trial
you need to be invited by a mentor, go to a big city and ask in /shout chat
Ask a
player
what does this mean on act?
ok thank you!
Critical Hit, Direct Hit, Critical Direct Hit
oohhh thank you
I don’t have the link on hand but you can also look up augmented exarchic walkthrough. This provides ilvl520 gear
Appreciate the info!
Is there a good source for reading up on the story of each dungeon outside of the game?
Lore based or walkthrough
Lore
Also for shadowbringers relics, can I start my gunbreaker relic even though the job isn't level 80? Or do I have to wait until then?
Has to be 80
Could anyone confirm me if I get regional pricing when paying the sub through steam wallet in mexico? Or is it the same price than paying directly to squeenix? I've seen mixed answers to this 
To even accept the quest
If I buy the videogame on Steam, can I keep subscribing from Steam?
For example, I buy the base game and all the DLCs, but I don't want to keep paying on SE's website.
Instead, I want to keep playing and paying from Steam.
Because that seems easier.
You can pay with the steam wallet
If you buy on steam you will need to use SE store still. However yo continue your sub you just select steam wallet for payment
But it'd all done via mogstation
Yeah you can use steam as a payment method. Just select it in the mogstation
^
@wintry trellis Why does SE have to make it so difficult? Damn.
Downloading and paying for subscription takes a god damn flowchart.
Most of their fan base is in an area where steam isn’t acceptable or as accessible
Make it more accessible and make more money, SE.
Hmmm.
Never heard of that issue.
Okay.
when i change my job, most of my hotbar switches accordingly, but some icons don't, why is that?
It’s honestly not that bad. I’ve seen worse systems
They're shared
Turn sharing off in character configuration > hotbar > sharing
Iirc it’s shared
Can we change jobs willy nilly?
Yes
Yes
Can we change servers?
Provided you're not in a dungeon
Yes and no
So I can become a warrior from a wizard?
Yes
Visit how?
Everything
Can we change races?
!faq worldvisit
The World Visit System allows players to visit other worlds on the same data center. After hopping to another world, you are then able to do almost everything you are normally able to such as partying up to take on duties. Click the link below to find out how it works, and what restrictions there are.
With fantasia yes
you play every job on one character
Yes the story
Every job on one character. You just have to meet level requirements for said quests
I like the way this game sounds.
I want to try the free trial.
However, can I convert my free trial account to normal and keep my stuff? Guide and others said I acn.
It just sounds too uncanny to make a free trial account.
Yes
What is the best tank class?
yes you can
Not the best.
Your entire progression, inventory etc is saved and holds over from trial to game
All are best
What is the most fun?
Subjective
That’s subjective
Warrior
Just take hits on and on.
Wow this discord has lots of emotes.
It is a official discord partner
warrior takes hits and heals itself right back up, one if its CDs increases your health a bunch to make you beefier which is fun
Gunbreakers apply healing and shielding to themselves by attacking
If you want to aoe spam and tank play warrior, if you wanna play secondary support and main healer when ur team dies play PLD want big boom boom attacks with flips, play gnb. Wanna be edgy with cool names play drk
No
Niiice.
no, you can do everything at your own pace
There’s no way to be penalized for not playing. There’s no shitty battle pass or log in system for rewards.
you even get rewarded for it with rested exp
well there is time gated event rewards which are put into the cash shop later
i'm starting to level my first alt job, it's dragoon, so far i've unlocked lifesurge and lance charge, how many more buffs will i unlock?
can i buy a house in this game?
What is an altjob?
setting up hotbar
yeah but those events are around for several weeks, not just a few days
theoretically yes, but housing space is limited so you'd have to be very lucky
Yeah but that doesn’t affect casual players who can’t play for like a day or two
second job besides the first one you picked
yeye
Can you yes, can you do it stress free with sleep? No
you can take all of them
not just second, any job, i phrased that wrong
So I can tank on weekdays and heal on weekends?
you tend to do the main quest on the first job you pick
Damn. Cool.
Yes

you can choose to play whatever you want on a whim when you have multiple jobs unlocked
Not a real maxer
You even get bonus xp for under leveled classes iirc. For example if your pld is lvl 80 and your nin is 15 you get catchup xp
idc as long as I have my amaro mount
Smh faker
Thanks, Imma head out.
How do I summon my boatship companion thing?
Nice community you got here.
Character tab, minion, select minion
Use the item then open the minion guide
Minion guide
Oh yeah make sure you’ve used it in inventory
do i gotta claim endwalker through mogstation cuz i got it on steam
i just finished this quest how do i get my first shadowbringer relic? {already finished 5.0} https://i.imgur.com/ciq34DH.png
@leaden ginkgo did you do stormblood alliance ?
That is the stormblood alliance
If not time to go back
🤔
so i cant do this quest for some reason, i got the marjoram but i cant deliver it to him
I think you find it in Rhalgr's Reach
High quality
Is it high quality or no
Also I'm Pretty sure you need 5.1
do i gotta claim endwalker through mogstation cuz i got it on steam, and its not giving me the ear rings
anyways, i'm starting to level my first alt job, it's dragoon, so far i've unlocked lifesurge and lance charge, how many more buffs will i unlock?
No wait just need hail to the Queen in kugane
idk how can i tell if it's high quality?
what dlc do i get if i just buy subscription
And progress after that needs 5.1
None
Don’t they get hw?
It glows yellow and has the symbol
That comes with ft
might as well just play free trial then
Multiple
ah you're right ty, but how do i get it hq?
Check your product key on steam and there should be an area in mog station to input it and claim ur reward
You have to redeem the preorder key from steam
ty, where do i find my product key
Yes
Right click manage CD keys
ty ty
You can manipulate the HQ percent using your gatherer skills, or have a better perception stat
You just gather the item and it may or may not be HQ
ok yea thanks
are you able to get more than 1 drop per week out of the last nier raid now? cant find an answer sorry
I’m pretty sure that got changed last patch. Not sure entirely
To continue the main story i need to be level 50. This is the first time the story outleveled me. Im now lvl49 and wondering what the fastest or go to ways to level are? I am trying the hunting logs but it is very time consuming and not good exp. Are quests around my level a good way to do it?
yes
as of patch 5.58
how many of these buffs are as important / should be easily accessible binds on my kb?
thank you!!!
is there a place where I can store items from my inventory?
You can try doing a deep dungeon and it should give you the level. Aside from that the leveling dungeons of 41-49 will more than likely give you a level
yes
i know the dragon gauge one refreshes itself with many attacks so probably don't need to have it on a "spammable" button
Where do i find keybind for commander squad orders?
Chocobo saddle, retainers
how do I access retainers?
I think they're out how do I call them back?
Check minimap and look for retainer vocate
Did you do the quest?
How can i keybind commancder squad orders
System configuration forgot what tab but there’s a key indicator option in there. If not there then check character configuration
How do you level alt classes once you finish the main story?
I spoke to the person at the gate
and it just told me I can go
to the goblet
You just do the quest for that job and you can swap between them. Leveling is pretty standard through the game. You wanna do dungeons x1-x9 (leveling dungeons) or deep dungeons 30-50 / 60-70
What does the red circled number means please ? How many people in party finder have a group opened for that specific dungeon ?
Ease of access is really the only preference. Do you want the SE launcher or steam launcher. If you go through steam please note that you’ll have to still use mog station and upon checkout you choose steam wallet
I believe that’s part finder I’m not sure though
now i can't leave combat lol
right click it and reset etity
@spring maple party finder specifically doing that dungeon
not to be confused with duty finder
@crude hinge right click the dummy name
like, the hp bar that appears
and reset eminity
when i right click it nothing happens?
right click on the target bar
Hello! Could anyone here help with light farming at lv60?
wait i got it, its the bar at the top of the screen not the one on the left
yes
Are you in a housing district?
Oh you solved it anyways nvm
I usually just find an instances area or if you go far enough away it’ll just drop entirely
going far enough away for dummies doesn't work anymore
you have to right click on the target bar to reset enmity
well there's no reason to do that anymore either way
Me lazy me just walk away
go to the zone line and then hit select on the residental ward menu
I can't access either of the 4 boots in the fashion report, can I do something else to compensate for that? trying to get 80
If you haven’t done the quest required to visit you won’t be able to do that method yet
entrance to the goblet is in western thanalan
I have
you don't have to do the quest to access the housing district
just go to the goblet entrance in western thanalan, select the first ward since the house you want to get to is in the 1st ward
hit select
What's weekly target in the masked carnivale? I just completed 13 but I don't really know what it is
hit select
oh
at the bottom of the window
how do I put in cordinates in the map? or am i being stupid
@wintry trellis @hard aurora Thanks 🙂
Judging by the look of relief on Keiten's face, you have saved him a great deal of time.

Shadowbringers
The City of Lost Angels
Path to the Past
yes
that is the starting quest for the shadowbringers relic
i485 is the starting level for the relic
485
someone told me you need poetics for the first step is that true?
like where can i see the upgrade steps
the first weapon is given freely once you complete the solo duty part of that quest chain
if you want to get another relic weapon for other jobs you'll need poetics yes
yes
To my knowledge you can’t gps to cords. If you type the command <pos> it will drop your cords and alt right clicking on a location drops those cords to chat
thats what i was looking for info on, how do i upgrade it.
Also flags for your party or anyone who clicks it
and with your first relic what ilvl does it start at or is it 485
how long does it take to get a crafting relic weapon? and are they worth it?
thats not great
jsut follow the quest chain and it'll take you thru the process of upgrading the weapon
Subjective to your willingness to grind
Can i checkout as guest for digital code on SE store with my own card address outside of NA? my account is NA region but im not from there
but the hail to the queen quest line is only 4 quests no?
fair enough
no, the entire quest chain is several quests long
You need 5.1 msq to progress
And 5.3 msq to finish
oh..
Lol you fucking wish
Buying from the market board, can i select the quantity that I want ?
5.4 for the last step
do i?
StQ is a pretty lengthy time investment.
stq?
save the queen
oh
which is the name of the series
You don’t rlly need them as you can get a weapon with the eden raid which is 535. Though the relic weapons also go to 535. It’s rlly aesthetic choices for glamours
Also the relic weapon is objectively better than the Eden raid weapon
That is really nice to know. Thank you

i basically cant even use my relic when i first get it due to the fact my current wep is 510, so it wouldnt be worth using
It will be later on though.
i mean of course. but im in the process of upgrading my 510 crafted to 520
with the tomestones
!fr
#kupo-bot-spam
Hey guys, how soon can I buy lvl 60 poetics after getting into heavensward? Will I still need to do some quests first or can I buy it as soon as I get there?
But with relic weapon you can get to 535 instead of 520
should be at ishgard
Not til 57ish msq
^
That won't spawn til you finish 3.0
true
Idyll shire is the location
Kk, ty all
Hey all, just a question: I haven't played since 2018 and I do not own Shadowbringers. I click to buy it to check the pricing and it redirects me to Endwalker. Does this mean that I can pre-order Endwalker and get Shadowbringers along with it?
Do you have to "register" at Chocobokeeps?
Like you have to register at every aether crystal?
where do I find the spell timer section in ACT. I have some water trigger that keeps triggering and I dont know where to disable it since I dont see a spell timer section
basically yes
So speaking to every Chocobokeep is a good idea?
i found this in the xml so im trying to found out where that coincides inside ACT
The relic weapons will grind to ilvl 535 which is highest ilvl the exarchic stops at 520.
You can, yeah. It might be a bit faster than mounts, but flying is ultimately faster, so it's up to you.
im aware.
So I wouldn’t concern about it Bc if you have 510 gear right now you’re good for almost all end game content anyways
485 is even enough to carry through the content until upgrading.
If you don’t have a mount yet, yes once you get one you just need to concern yourself with big crystals
yes
whats the difference between the server categories like aether primal and crystal
if any
Data centers are just the main servers hosted in locations, the worlds are just sub servers. Easiest explanation
Question. So I’m spamming highest available dungeon to level an alt job but
so they are 3 different locations the servers are hosted at?
Uhm I don’t wanna spam Aurum Vale when I get there…
nope, they're all in teh same location
can just do palace of the dead instead
or if for some reason you really don't like palace, can do fates
with beast tribe dailies (tho arr tribes are kind of meh in terms of exp)
Spamming any x1-x9 dungeon will give you adjusted xp for your level. Though ideally you wanna do what lvl your at. Potd is next best thing
uhm, not quite true on that first paryt
sastasha is not going to give appropriate exp for a 49
its going to give appropriate exp for a 15-18
Oh yeah nice catch my b
Oh wait, that’s why I specified you wanna do the one according to current level
Though I see how that’s confusing
how do I obtain these Fieldcraft Demimateria II
hey does zadnor give the same amout of exp as bozja when leveling up to 80?
Via Desynthesis, totally randomly. Theres a huge list of possibilities and this may be old even:
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Category:Desynth_resulting_in_Fieldcraft_Demimateria_II
Same xp yes, though iirc bozja encounters are closer resulting in faster xp
oh okay, so its still more worth doing it in bozja then
leveling on a preferred server really puts me higher then the quest levels im on (e.g lvl 30, and still doing quests that are 16), the rewards are lower level, would it be wise to buy armour/weapons from the shops to keep up?
Which classes/jobs are the most fun?
Pretty much
@stark kite when u get to 45 u can do class quest for a gear set
ok cool, but to get to that point, is it worth buying?
If you want, you dont have to but if you can afford it. Just know that gear rotates so quickly at lower levels because you level so fast, so if nothing else you can just focus on your weapon since the weapon is the most important piece.
Job quests and waiting til you can get that expansions tomestone gear is usually best. Save gil
ok cool, just being lvl 30 and still rocking lvl 15 gear seemed odd
This is rough because its SOO subjective - jobs that are fun for me as a main tank are the -complete- opposite of jobs that are fun for my healer friend, you know?
what are 'steps' for in crafting? do they give more exp the more the steps?
Yeah you can equip the gear from those quest to steadily raise your ilvl. Other than that there’s not a huge need unless you’re going for glams
Get on YouTube and look at job guides. This is fastest way to find jobs that peak interest.
how do i uh get back here
There should be an NPC around where you went to get there with a blue circle on their head
i cant remember where i went to get there xD
i autopilot'd
airship in doman enclave
In crafting, EXP is determined by the Quality rating you have when you finish. 100% HQ craft gives you the most exp possible.
One action takes one step, no limits on how many steps you can use. You're just limited by Durability / CP
i dont see doman in my teleport list
Thank you!! So the steps are there just for indicator purposes?
I only ask because lancer getting a bit boring with its 2 button rotation 💀 I know I'm only level 10, but still
how do i get here?
All jobs are generally like that until higher levels
not quite
its how much quality you've put into a craft
can you mark it? i already looked around and didnt find any cave entrances that lead there
We always say, pretty much all jobs are rough before level 50. After 50 and beyond, you'll start to see these 10 button combos for Dragoon and it'll be much more engaging
ah found it
why am I not authorized to participate in the hunt?
if you put in a 100% quality, then you get the most exp possible, but you start with say 20% quality, and get 100% you're not going to get as much exp as if you had started with 0% quality and gotten 100%

how do i go about getting fleece?
welp gg i guess lmao i cant figure out how i get back to the doman enclave
assuming you unlocked the aetheryte, its on the teleport list under othard
if you didn't attune, then there's a ferry in yanxia
True true, even if "Raw" crafting exp isnt the endgame for DoH leveling, it still adds up so good to differentiate
i dont think i attuned
ok
Hi guys, I'm level 30 and need to do the black mage unclok quest, do you know where is it?

Do u still get the max poetics doin unsyned dungeons alone?
No
I see
Are there any other places that I can get luminous water crystals from other than dravanian hinterlands?
You only get poetics if there's a first time bonus
any way to test FR score before presenting for real?
so i got my 485 relic but i have any quests here to upgrade it
So what's the best way to go for post shb gears?
Since i can't do nier alliance raids
do gladiator/etc retainers become paladins/etc when they get to level 30 if you have the job unlocked?
Continue the bojzan story.... You need 5.1 story done to continue it
ah
no
Only if you choose to upgrade them
Do Eden normal
will they go back to level 1 if I do?
No
if you've got the gil, can skip most of the grind and just get exarchic
I don't know if I'm far enough ... :c

you'll have to check your marketboard
If it's not showing under the main scenario tracker then you haven't

Ooof
yes
If you brought the game before yes
But there is a returner campaign so you get 14 days free if you do
